Affirmations

My life began as a twinkling
in my parents' eye -
today my heart remembers
what it forgot in the cradle:

I am good enough.
Life knows better than I what it is about.
Life is on my side.
When I struggle, I mistake
the universal desire to be happy
with wanting to be happy.

Life wants me to be happy,
because I am a part of it,
and it is a part of me.
And yet, happiness is found
while walking life's journey -
I surely enjoy that walk with thee.
